lockd: Introduce new-style XDR functions for NLMv4

2010-12-16T17:37:23+00:00

We'd like to prevent local buffer overflows caused by malicious or
broken servers.  New xdr_stream style decoders can do that.

For efficiency, we also want to be able to pass xdr_streams from
call_encode() to all XDR encoding functions, rather than building
an xdr_stream in every XDR encoding function in the kernel.

Same idea as the NLM v3 XDR overhaul.

headers: utsname.h redux

2009-09-24T01:13:10+00:00

* remove asm/atomic.h inclusion from linux/utsname.h --
   not needed after kref conversion
 * remove linux/utsname.h inclusion from files which do not need it

NOTE: it looks like fs/binfmt_elf.c do not need utsname.h, however
due to some personality stuff it _is_ needed -- cowardly leave ELF-related
headers and files alone.

NSM: Remove include/linux/lockd/sm_inter.h

2009-01-06T16:53:55+00:00

Clean up: The include/linux/lockd/sm_inter.h header is nearly empty
now.  Remove it.

NLM: Decode "priv" argument of NLMPROC_SM_NOTIFY as an opaque

2009-01-06T16:53:54+00:00

The NLM XDR decoders for the NLMPROC_SM_NOTIFY procedure should treat
their "priv" argument truly as an opaque, as defined by the protocol,
and let the upper layers figure out what is in it.

This will make it easier to modify the contents and interpretation of
the "priv" argument, and keep knowledge about what's in "priv" local
to fs/lockd/mon.c.

For now, the NLM and NSM implementations should behave exactly as they
did before.

The formation of the address of the rebooted host in
nlm_host_rebooted() may look a little strange, but it is the inverse
of how nsm_init_private() forms the private cookie.  Plus, it's
going away soon anyway.

lockd: Remove unused fields in the nlm_reboot structure

2008-10-03T21:02:35+00:00

The nlm_reboot structure is used to store information provided by the
NSM_NOTIFY procedure.  This procedure is not specified by the NLM or NSM
protocols, other than to say that the procedure can be used to transmit
information private to a particular NLM/NSM implementation.

For Linux, the callback arguments include the name of the monitored host,
the new NSM state of the host, and a 16-byte private opaque.

As a clean up, remove the unused fields and the server-side XDR logic that
decodes them.

LOCKD: Convert printk's to dprintk's in lockd XDR routines

2007-10-09T21:17:12+00:00

Due to recent edict to remove or replace printk's that might flood the

SUNRPC: RPC buffer size estimates are too large

2007-05-01T05:17:10+00:00

The RPC buffer size estimation logic in net/sunrpc/clnt.c always
significantly overestimates the requirements for the buffer size.
A little instrumentation demonstrated that in fact rpc_malloc was never
allocating the buffer from the mempool, but almost always called kmalloc.

To compute the size of the RPC buffer more precisely, split p_bufsiz into
two fields; one for the argument size, and one for the result size.

Then, compute the sum of the exact call and reply header sizes, and split
the RPC buffer precisely between the two.  That should keep almost all RPC
buffers within the 2KiB buffer mempool limit.

And, we can finally be rid of RPC_SLACK_SPACE!

NLM: Shrink the maximum request size of NLM4 requests

2007-05-01T05:17:09+00:00

NLM version 4 requests estimate the call and reply header sizes rather
conservatively, using the very maximum size allowed in the protocol even
though Linux always uses only a small fraction of the allowable space.

Reduce the size of caller and lock arguments to conserve RPC buffer space
while XDR encoding NLM4 arguments.  Add compile-time checks to ensure the
hostname string won't overflow NLM protocol maximums.
